'''Omega-pentacot''' is a temperament archetype where the generator is a semitone, five of which stack to form a perfect fourth of [[4/3]], and the period is a [[2/1]] octave. Omega-pentacot temperaments usually generate the [[1L 11s]] and [[12L 1s]] MOS structures. Regular temperaments of omega-pentacot are [[Cluster MOS|cluster temperaments]] with 12 clusters of notes in an octave. | '''Omega-pentacot''' is a temperament archetype where the generator is a semitone, five of which stack to form a perfect fourth of [[4/3]], and the period is a [[2/1]] octave.

While there is no agreed-upon notation system for omega-pentacot, the following is based on interpreting the generator as a semitone (1/5 of a fourth), allowing for an ^ or v to stand for a 1/5 of an ''inversed'' diminished second (equivalent to the [[Pythagorean comma]]), so vvvC# and ^^Db are enharmonic. | While there is no agreed-upon notation system for omega-pentacot, the following is based on interpreting the generator as a semitone (1/5 of a fourth), allowing for an ^ or v to stand for a 1/5 of an ''inversed'' diminished second (the difference between diatonic semitone and chromatic semitone, equivalent to the [[Pythagorean comma]]), so vvvC# and ^^Db are enharmonic. | ||
